💬 Interview Process
How did you prepare for the interview?
Go over some common questions asked in every pharmacy school interview (i.e. Introduce yourself, Why pharmacy?, Why this school?)
What was the most difficult question?
Pretend a friend of yours told you that they had a disease. What would you do?
What impressed you positively?
Generally, faculty were pretty approachable and friendly and took their time to speak with us.
What impressed you negatively?
One of the interviewers was pretty rude, criticized one of the answers I gave and was generally quite short and rude with me
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
(online interview day) I had a later interview day in late February and there were only two other interviewees. The day consisted of two 20 minute interviews, a writing assignment, some interviewee group work (work as a group to answer a prompt, and work as a group to defend a silly prompt in a debate), and a presentation about the school. They give an itinerary of the day ahead of time so you know generally the timing of the events of the day.
